Its more links with the north we need not less! We are an island. Brexit may not be that hard anyhow and if it is well it could work out as an important supply route

350000 journeys on the open section last year? That's impressive to be fair and can only bode well for advocates hoping to open the disused sections.

It is excellent news that the line is finally beginning to deliver. With ever increasing congestion we will hopefully see a concentration of housing development around the reopened stations to grow the passenger numbers more.

The cart was put before the horse a bit on phase one but cluster development around the reopened stations and around the proposed phase 2 stations is what is needed.
